CG Trim Gel Review

[Wp]

Ok. Yesterday I used Chemical Guys New Look Trim Gel on and 1991 T4 work van. A fair test as the van works hard and as you can see from the pics below trim is very faded.

Product: The trim gel is a clear gel with very little if any odour, a very thick product, I would recomend you apply using gloves and in my case a Autoglym sponge applicator. As the product is so thick you need to work it into the trim / tyres a little more than other thinner spray products (AG instant trye shine, Megs hot tyre shine, or Megs trim detailer) though it does spread a fair way. On the entire van I used very little from the bottle so very ecomicial. You also have to ensure the trim / tyres are dry.

Pro's: Very thick product that goes on easy and leaves a nice finish. At £9.95 for a 16oz bottle,very economical, a nice high shine,easy application.

Con's: Really only that you have to work it in a little more than other products. Can't comment on longevity as the product has on been on the trim for 1 day.

Ditto, its top stuff. Yes, you do have to work it in quite a bit, but well worth the effort.
I got some from dave at the last meet.
Works great even after the heavy Scottish rain.
I got about 3-4 weeks out of mine, and thats on a van used everyday and washed every 2-3 days.

Just a little tip ,make sure you buff the product with an old microfibre cloth after applictaion and this will prevent wtaer marks and ensure durability remains

i have been using this for a while - and really like it. as with most of these products, making sure the surface is very very clean first is the key

I love this product on exterior trim, I haven't tried it on tyres yet though. I'm a Meg's Endurance fan for tyres.

I love this on exterior trim looks great as u can see and seems to last pretty well.

i had been using it on my tyres, but they look like they are starting to go a bit brown. i dunno if its this gel that doing it, or whether im imagining it.
